Tab selection
Tab selection
Can DM be designed to select the whole next field when you tab over/down? I find the spacing is often funny (a whole bunch of spaces after the last text character in a field) and it makes it more difficult to copy/paste/cut/replace when you have to manually select the text.

Re: Tab selection
Yes, it can.Can DM be designed to select the whole next field when you tab over/down?
But, it can be dangerous! As the DM saves your data as you edit it field by field (as opposed to waiting for you to click some <Save> button to save all changes or <Cancel> to revert all changes) an accidental hit of <anything> could result in loss of data.
That's the reason for the current behavior.
But let me investigate how hard it would be to make that a user definable option ... where you can turn it on or off in the program settings.
